Man leads troopers on chase

KAWKAWLIN TOWNSHIP  Michigan State Police troopers from the Bay City post arrested a 24-year-old Warren man after a high-speed chase on I-75.

Speeds reached 100 mph during the chase, which began when troopers tried to stop the man, whom they suspected was drunk.

The man exited I-75 to westbound U.S. 10, going off the right side of the road to pass a patrol vehicle. The man couldnt pass, so he went back into the road and collided with another patrol vehicle. The Chevy Blazer he was driving then went off the road and into a ditch. The man began to run, and got about 150 yards before he was caught by officers using a Taser.

Charges include assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, third-offense drunken driving, flee and elude, resisting arrest and driving while his license was revoked.
